A: £30-40K
(Personally, I 'm fascinated rather than repulsed.)

The first time I came across #KublaiKhan / #SamuelTaylorColeridge was when I was playing a computer game based on #TheFourthProtocol by #FrederickForsyth back in the 80s. The first line of the poem is used in-game to encode a message that you have to decipher.
I went into school & spoke to my English teacher who was kind enough to photocopy the entire poem for me, which in the end I didn't actually need.
I really hated the rat in a maze bit, oh & was disappointed to be unable to visit Riga (:*

Just reminded of something while watching TV.
Did anyone ever find out who that person from Porlock was‽:*
Also wondering if I've asked this already‽;*

The link has some possible options, and also mentions a theory that the person didn't exist and #SamuelTaylorColeridge made them up to explain how fragmentary #KublaiKhan is.
That was worth a dig (;*
